Jupiter


Jupiter is the king of the gods, sky, and weather.
He is also god of fate of men and nations, law, justice, and moral conduct.
He was widely worshipped across all of Rome.
He is praised in many sanctuaries and shrines.
Jupiter is normally portrayed as a regal, bearded man.
Jupiter's signature weapon was a lightning bolt and he usually had a royal scepter and eagle.
Little poem I just made up...
Jupiter, king of the sky,
Jupiter, ever so high,
was a god of moral conduct,
but why had he never had much moral conduct?
We do not know why,
that the king of the sky,
was never a truely good guy.
